Many casee of importance have
been acted upon in the Court of

Court during the past year.
The most important of these
cases, both from a national and
? local viewpoint, is the minimum

no longer entitled to special protec
tion, and that the law was confisca
tory. The decision, until the United

?nd also the decisions of the Stute
courts on minimum wage mutters.

"As it whs the firm ?toomer ? ver

"What are your hopes for 1923f"
These two questions were put to - prominent Frenchmen

Here are their replies:
By Marshal Foch.
Assuming that my opinion is
aeked in a military sense, the Turk
ish victory will, of course, be re
garded by history aa the greatest
event of 1922.
However, let us hope that as the
years pass and the lessons of war
are more readily learned such
'great" events will be of Increas
ing rarity.
By General Sarrau,
Victor of Verdun.
Would that I could say. In an
awer to your first question, a sin
gle word, "peace." Unhappily this,
the most Important word In the
human lexicon, la slipping from the
vocabulary of Europe.

conferences: Washington. Canne?,
Moudania, Lausanne, Paris, Lon
don. But we seek vainly? In the
decisions taken at these confer
ence? for the "great," the out
standing event of 1922.
Kor 1923 we only hope that there
will be fewer diplomatic confer
ence?, and. therefore, fewer unfor

tear into scraps of paper, and less
disorder in Kurop??.

The biggest event of the year
was the defeat administered to

this match than talked about the

After Suffering for Years
From Stomach Trouble,
Relief Came By Taking
the New Medicine,
Dreco.
If you are a sufferer from stom
ach trouble don't wait until your
condition becomes grave before tak
ing proper steps to correct the dis
order. More lives are lost by the
needles* disregard of the beginning:
of poor health than by all other
causes combined. Most cases of
?tomar? disorder, liver trouble, con
stipation, rheumatism, and nervous
breakdown are absolutely inexcus
able now. There i.s no more reason
for a man or woman eating with
poor appetite, of sleeping poorly, or
suffering continually from rheuma
tism or catarrh than for her going
without the necessities of life. Sei
enee has proved these statements
true.
"I ?ar? recently learned how fool
ish it is for anyone to keep on auf
ferlng from stomach trouble, but it
look me a long time to find il
out." said Mr. D. A. Osbourn. of
44-0 Kan??? Ave. N. W., WaahlnK
ton. I). C.
"1 know what it is to he full ??(
gas. have cramps, to be nuns* at? d
and feel sick at the stomach I
know what nervo??, restless nigh:
are as well as aching, painful joints
and backache
"But I now know that Dree,
will bring prompt relief from these
ailments. Since taking Dreco I
feel better than I have for man ?
a day and I wish that every person
In this city who has the same tron
hies would take Dreco and get the
same relief as I got, for I am the
happiest man in town."
<>o today to O'lKinnell's Drug
Store, ?oi 9th St. N. W., ask for
Mr. Williamson, the well-known

the merits of this great remedy.
There is no charge and he will tell
